Will anyone notice?

Just read the link.

What are you up to Ralph?

Have you heard that Mafeking has been relieved?

I'll be disappointed if they close it. Some good shows (as well as some absolute dross).

Can't help noticing that David Dinsmore doesn't mention Talk Radio. Is Talk Radio part of his/their plans?

Murdoch buying the Wireless Group is old news but the deal is being completed around now. I'm just worried they're only really interested in Talk Sport. See the Press Gazette article.

Well its the cash cow...as dispiriting as that is. I suppose it depends on the amount of profit,if any, the others are making.
But then again he did buy MySpace for something ridiculous.....

Shutting down Talkradio may make Paul Ross miserable again. He could start dogging as a result.

I'd think The Sun would do something with it - sacking the Dogger would certainly help because he's an atrociously poor broadcaster.

One thing is for sure, Grunt gets more callers in 2 hours than Ross does in 4!
